    Perhaps someone is re-enacting Dunkirk with a canal barge that appears to be laying idle?



    It's a NARROWBOAT not a barge and certainly NOT a longboat as some have called her.

    For info :-

    'Update 19 September 2025, 10:25am

    Despite the recent rainfall, the water levels in the reservoirs that supply the Leicester Line (Grand Union Canal) have not improved enough to allow us to relax the current navigation restrictions and closures'.

    However spent last week on boat which is at present moored in a marina.

    (Believe it or not no-one in Crick has heard of Operation Stack/Manston 'Airport or HS1! They are all however, from overheard conversations at the Marina, in the local shop, in the cafe etc talking about 'immigration' - although they seem to understand even less on the subject than many people on this forum)
